Hi Alex,
Thanx for the great reply. You obviously make some valid points. Playing keyboard can be very easy to some and super difficult for some others. But playing music in general is like "Magic Medicine" and can make people very happy, either on the dance floor, in a studio, or make a bad day bright. I am a big believer in "practice makes perfect" and for that I thank my dad for making me play every day in my younger years. Perserverence and enjoyment is the key. Make yourself happy then try to pass on the Magic Medicine to others. Yes Alex music is a gift. With all the DJ's out there some would think that us LIVE Musicians are a dying breed, but I hope to be here for a while with many other "REAL Musicians" so play every day and share the magic Medicine! This forum is very enjoyable also.

I'm off to Atlantic City Tonight!

take care,

Donny
